The Judas Goat

The Judas Goat by Robert B. Parker

The doctor put a pressure bandage on my, ah, thigh, and gave me some pills for the pain. “You’ll walk funny for a few days,” he said. “After that you should be fine. Though you’ll have an extra dimple in your cheeks now.”

“I’m glad there’s socialized medicine,” I said. “If only there was a vow of silence that went with it.”

    • Thanks for stopping by! Glad that snippet worked (I meant to try this last week, but…man, there was just nothing interesting on the 56th page of the book I’d picked) 🙂
